  Another Tip

Another way of determining the key from the key signature:

If it is written in flats, the second last flat is the key. Exception: There is only 1 flat in the key of F (i.e. Bb); therefore, you just have to memorize that one.

If it is written in sharps, the note that follows the last sharp is the key. For example, the Key of G has an F# (only one sharp in this case), so G is the next note and thus it is in the key of G.

Hope this helps.
